Lyrics
It's just a figment of my imagination
A shadow on the wall, a bump in the night
There's no possible relation
Between the dream in my head and the cold light of day
The phone will never ring
And if it does, it's not for me
The door is never opening
To reveal the shape of my heart's desire
I wish the sky would clear
But I'm not surprised when the clouds remain
I wish you were here
And I wish I was somewhere, anywhere, else.
Only in my mind are we united
I am the unrequited
Waiting out this endless rainy day
(second time) Just throwing my love away
How would it feel, do you suppose
To hit the rail and fly out into space
It's not the end that I propose
Just a harmless little fantasy
A fleeting thought, just a fool's idea
No follow through, I promise you
Drunken postulation, a lie through my tears
Take me home, I need to be at home right now
You'd think I'd pay attention when
Something sets off all kinds of alarms
But I thought them not worth a mention when
Two years ago, I spent one night alone in your arms
Only in my mind are we united
I am the unrequited
I have nothing more to say
